We'd be everyone's popular 3 seed pick which would probably be the kiss of death.

No we aren’t. Lets pump the brakes a bit on that one.

If we do what I just said, we will be in the discussion. I'm not saying we will do that, but it's not impossible. With the way the better teams don't give a **** sometimes in that tournament (like Florida in this series), we have a chance to make some noise. Or we may lose tomorrow and lose game 1 in Hoover and be a 3 seed.

Um no. We aren't. Period.

Didn't Ole Miss draw and lose to a Utah team as a 4 seed a couple years back that was a PAC 10 divisional champion but with a really bad RPI? We could be a lot like that Utah team--good enough to ruin someone else's season but not good enough to do anything with our own.

That scenario would have us winning about 6 more games and our record and RPI would be as good as other host schools. Just because it's unlikely that we actually win that amount of games doesn't mean it's not possible, no matter how cool you think you sound by proclaiming it's impossible.

Nah we aren’t. No matter what happens between now and the Regional we aren’t hosting. You and SixPackSpeak on Twitter need to stop drinking for the night.

Asking Kendall Rogers on Twitter if we are hosting is a proud Mississippi State tradition. Ranks right up there with Edam cheese and cowbells.

In 2012, we were 39-22, won the SEC Tourney, and had a Top 20 RPI, and STILL didn’t host. We have no chance to get to any of those numbers this year even if we win out. It’s flat out not happening. Can still get a 2-seed with a decent showing in Hoover though.

Yeah, that is plausible. But not even close to what he said. And if you can get inside poster's heads and decipher what they "MEAN" to say, then you need to stay the hell away from me and my brain, sir.

He probably meant State could get a 2 seed, go win a regional, and hope for an upset so we can host a super regional. Very plausible.

Yes that was 2016 when they went 0-2 as a host. Lost to Tulane also
